Looking out, the city walls were already packed with soldiers. The arrowheads shimmered with a chilling, lethal light under the sun, a sight that made one's scalp tingle and blood run cold.

Yuchi Wei could not help but gasp. Surrounded by insurmountable walls, their only path of retreat was blocked by a heavy stone gate.

If a single volley of arrows were to rain down from the ramparts, the twelve of them would surely be turned into hedgehogs.

"Su'er..."

I attempted to rise from the recliner to get a closer look, but after several failed tries, I was forced to give up. I realized that my perspective was anchored here; any attempt to force myself forward would only snap me back from this projection into reality, so I let it be.

Who is "No Money"? A prominent businessman in the real world—I understood what he meant from Qian Cheng's words.

To Xiang Long’s surprise, the space Mebis had led him into was like a maze. He wandered for a long time, unable to find his way back.

"Call me Hu Man." The man in the red robe had never expected that after agreeing to travel with Hu Man, he would be ignored for two days and two nights, save for that single instruction.

It seemed this was all part of Wei Sheng's plan. On the surface, he was having Wei Shiqi conduct the investigation, but in reality, he was using her to draw the enemy's attention so he could strike from behind.

Before Hu Man’s voice had even faded, he stepped forward toward the gap in the tree. With a sudden incantation, he mimicked the ferocity of a tiger, his wooden axe slicing through the air as he struck the opening in the tree three times in rapid succession.

Concerned about nursing her son, she ignored her usual poise and walked out with Quan Sheng-nan, feeling deeply insecure.

Qian Cheng chuckled, unbothered; he knew Qianqian was doing this on purpose, waiting to spring a surprise on him later.

Xinyi said nothing, fiddling with the chips in his hand while staring at the gambling table. The bodyguard bowed slightly, preparing to withdraw.

Darkness was their camouflage. I grew tense, taking out the talismans from my pocket and plastering them across my chest and back.

"It’s better to be busy; that way, there’s no time to think about other things," Jiang Tong said. By "other things," he naturally meant matters of the heart.

Guo Jia’s face flushed red and then paled; he could almost feel Dong Zhao’s gaze shifting across his features.

However, after such a long battle, his Eight Desolations Divine Body had undergone another transformation, becoming far stronger than it had been at the start.

The defenders on the city walls had lost all room for maneuver, left with almost no time to prepare.

Had Xu Yi not arrived in time, the outcome would have been dire, and Lu Xueqi would likely have been in grave danger. She could see that the bond between Xu Yi and Lu Xueqi was profound; while she owed nothing to others, she felt a sense of guilt toward Xu Yi.

Every year, numerous trade caravans traveled between the Fairy Forest and the Dwarf Kingdom. The outsiders who visited them most frequently were often the very races they held in the lowest regard.

"You can't see through it?" Xiao Feng raised an eyebrow, surprised. The Black Beast Sovereign’s strength was at the mid-stage of the Dou Zun realm; for someone to be unfathomable to him, they would have to be at least a late-stage Dou Zun.

The terrain of Qingqiu was simple. It seemed the fake Old Man Under the Moon lacked the power to bring Tao Heng and Liu Changyan together without revealing himself.

Yet, miraculously, Carol could see everything here clearly. It was as if it were daytime; even without a sun, the light remained.

For this meeting, Su Qingge specifically chose an elegant, bright hotel rather than holding it at the Luo family's high-end studio.

Many media members and fans were momentarily stunned. They had all assumed the first half was coming to a close and that they would have to wait for the second half for a goal, never expecting Liverpool to break the deadlock in the final moments.

"You... don't come any closer! I am a Flower Fairy with a celestial registry. If you eat me... you will be struck by divine lightning!" I retreated step by step, while the great tiger bared its fangs, closing in on me.
